  Special place in the jungle!
You really feel in a movie...
The hosts are so nice. We got a room with amazing sea view. You see monekys and birds all... read more around.
Local food was excellent, also the guided tour and massage.
You feel in a retreat!
Make sure to book a room with full food package, worth it! Bring books with you and enjoy the jungle and the beach.

  This was a very special place that my husband and I found through a yoga retreat. This spot is for the adventurous. Once you arrive you are completely immersed in... read more nature. Very simple and rustic accommodations that cover all of your needs. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The food was spectacular, some of the best food I've eaten in Costa Rica and most of it is harvested locally from their gardens and food forest. Great remote location right next to corcovado national park and across the street from the ocean. Everyone there is so welcoming and accommodating to all of your needs. True rest and relaxation was experienced while we were there and time really seemed to slow down. Not a single detail was overlooked in the care and curation of the spaces, how they flow with nature, how they feel with the abundance of fruits and flowers, the music, the lighting, everything! We absolutely loved staying at Finca Exotica the owners are true stewards of the land. We are looking forward to when we can return again to the heart of the jungle for another truly authentic Costa Rican Experience.

  I don't think words are sufficient to describe Finca Exotica. The staff is exceptional, the concept is magical, the food is especially fine. If you have to have... read more air conditioning and hot showers, please go somewhere else. If you prefer interaction with interesting folks, appreciate being treated as a true guest rather than a customer, and being given access to the wonders of the Osa Peninsula, you'll love this experience. We will return next year when the snow piles up and we're itching for another trip to the peninsula. Thanks again to your wonderful staff.

  This place is very special. Like Robinson Crusoe you are living in a tropical forest, sharing life and sleep wth the birds, the sea, the monkeys and the... read more amazing flowers. You can’t get closer to nature than that, while sleeping in high quality bed sheets and beautifully designed cabins. The people working at the lodge are all on an equal footing, From the owner to the yoga teacher, the cook and the waiters. The philosophy is great. The food is super healthy and original. But if you want some sweets or salty, bring some snacks. I would return tomorrow and I’ll never forget it!

  This is a very warm recommendation for Finca Exotica! We stayed in the lodge for 4 nights and had a wonderful time!
The wood cabin we stayed in is... read more an open structure that keeps you a part of the jungle. We loved it, and felt we had a lot of privacy. The cabin has a large and very comfortable double bed, covered by a mosquito net, and also a private bathroom and (cold) shower. While staying there we got visits from a coati, monkeys and Scarlett Macaws that are abundant in the place.
The restaurant area is beautiful and has a wonderful view to the jungle and beach. Sitting there just makes you feel peaceful. The great food contains mainly fresh ingredients from the garden and area.
There is also a beautiful yoga deck in the place with a spartacular view, and great yoga classes given by Mauricio.
This is an ideal starting point for tours in Corcovado. We were a bit afraid of the road from Puerto Jimenez to Carate because of the river crossings, since we visited the place in July (rainy season), but apparently there are some brand new bridges on most of them, so it was not a problem. However the road is not paved so 4x4 is needed.
We highly recommend Finca Exotica which is the ultimate escape to nature, especially in these crazy days.

  We stayed for five days and nights in May and I can't say enough good things about this enchanted place and the lovely owners. First of all, it's the most... read more beautiful place I've ever been and I've traveled a great deal. The cabins are just perfect and are meticulously maintained. The owners could NOT have been nicer or more attentive but they also gave us our space. The food was literally the best food I've ever had traveling. Five days here and I felt the best I've felt in years. Trust me, you want all the meals. There are monkeys (all four kinds!), and toucans and parrots and sooooo many other animals everywhere and it's like your own little paradise. Oh and lemurs galore! If you're lucky enough to stay here you will never forget the experience - the graciousness of the hosts, the fun activities to do, the beach you basically have to yourself, the delicious food, the animals, the cabins - it's all just so well done. And the restaurant area - it's SO cool. Already planning a return visit:)

  We decided to drive to the Finca and the trip was the start of an amazing experience. The road was ruff and we drove through rivers, which was really exciting.... read more The wildlife & nature scenes, we saw on the way was already amazing. The Finca is nestled in nature, without disturbing it. It's living in harmony with your surrounding. The cabins are comfortable and open so you feel like your one with the Jungle. Just hanging out at the Finca we saw many animals very close for good pictures and some interaction. The food was healthy and very tasty, we enjoyed a glass of wine before dinner and watched the sunset from the deck.
On the trip to the National Park we saw more animals, some we would have missed if our guide from the Lodge would not have pointed them out. It was a long day and we were tired. The Thai Yoga Massage and Yoga brought our energy back and when we left, I think we changed a little. It was an amazing time and I can't wait to go back. If you want to connect with nature, it's the perfect place.
I felt safe from covit there, everything was outside and clean.
